You’ll develop expertise through hands-on design projects where you’ll explore the areas of design you are most passionate about, working alongside designers with complementary skills. Through studio-based practice, you’ll create products and interfaces that are user friendly and functional, and learn how to collaborate effectively with other professionals, like engineers, marketers, and project managers to bring your designs to life. When you graduate, you’ll have a portfolio of real client work to showcase your skills and launch your career in established design specialisations, as well as transforming industry practice through cutting edge fields like Service Design, Human-Centred Design, and Experience (UX) Design.
